X-23, Lady Deathstrike, Blackheart, Pyro, Bullseye, Sentry/Black Panther/Everyone else who used that body, the Urban Legends Punisher, the Giant-Man Thor (seriously, I have a Sabretooth and Captain America who've got more muscle than that Thor!). <BR/><BR/>Anyhow, did you see a USAgent? I'd heard they were supposed to be working on one for the same line that Union Jack's supposed to be part of.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11283044880351616335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-55611825196332421932008-04-21T14:18:00.000-04:002008-04-21T14:18:00.000-04:00"I haven't been overly impressed with the sculpts ..."I haven't been overly impressed with the sculpts since Hasbro took over the line.

Nowhere near the quality, almost artistic sculpts Toy Biz produced."<BR/><BR/>I hear this observation a lot. The first wave of their figures, picking up from Toy Biz, were a little boring/wonky. That Emma Frost is probably one of the worst sculpts (in terms of proportions) I've ever seen, with a teeny-tiny head. <BR/><BR/>That said, I think that Hasbro is certainly getting better with the figures. But the early days of the Toy Biz line where everybody had paint washes and separately jointed fingers and toes were kinda neat.Vergehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10083468076834391732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-12808483042542811112008-04-21T14:13:00.000-04:002008-04-21T14:13:00.000-04:00I haven't been overly impressed with the sculpts s...I haven't been overly impressed with the sculpts since Hasbro took over the line.

I just wanna play with some cool action figures, dammit!WOLVERINEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330916393850341529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-46432936423872036262008-04-21T11:08:00.000-04:002008-04-21T11:08:00.000-04:00i gotta get the nova, and the skrull/kree. awesome...i gotta get the nova, and the skrull/kree. awesome, awesome, awesome.sammy.the.khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06244600298489890263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-31222154440801434542008-04-21T11:06:00.000-04:002008-04-21T11:06:00.000-04:00Hurrah for Doc Sampson!

Actually, they need to do a boxed set of the entire New Mutants team.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17723952510039418615noreply@blogger.com
